Digital Supply Chain Transformation - From Hype to Reality

This marcus evans conference will discuss the
critical question supply chain organizations are facing in a time of high
volatility and change: how much to invest in digital supply chain solutions,
and how much to reinvent the way they do supply chain. For many traditional
industrial companies, still waiting to see how this pens out, there is a danger
of being left behind. The perception is both that a digital supply chain is
inevitable, but also that the required investment to make this transformation
come about is very high. But is that really the case?

We will address key questions such as: what does digital
supply chain transformation mean for your company, and how can it be integrated
into the current way of operating; how to use big data to make better
decisions; how to use machine learning to improve planning accuracy or support
decision making and how to better leverage digital capabilities for network
optimisation. By exploring these topics in practical use cases and debates we
will try to debunk some of the hype surrounding anything ‘digital’ these days,
and discuss the practical implications of digital technologies and the business
changes needed for successful implementation that impacts the bottom line.
